Calculating Nt-1 in Bass | Calculating m, p and q in the Bass Model

How do you calculate Nt-1 in the Bass formula?

Nt-1Voytech Nt-1 cannot be calculated.
Usually it is given, since it represents the cumulative number of adopters so far (incl. period n-1).
It is the base for your estimations of p,q and m.
Once you have those p,q,m values, you can calculate Nt, Nt+1 and so on that will converge to m. |

Calculating Nt-1Ram Hi, Nt-1 stands for the total number or the cumulative number of consumers who have already adopted the product. For example, you might have data for weeks 1-10 of the product launch. Then the total number of consumers who have purchased the product till week 10 = Nt-1. Hope this helps. |

Calculating Nt in The Bass ModelAditi Sharma, Member I have all the other values except Nt.
If I have to calculate what will be the sales in the 4 th year, how will I find it without having the value of Nt first? |
